I have an MTX thunder 942 amp, and the specs are

235 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms
470 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms
940 watts RMS x 1 bridged output at 4 ohms
stereo or bridged mono output
4-ohm stable in bridged mode
Tri-Way capable
requires 4-gauge power and ground leads plus a 150-amp fuse and fuse holder  wiring and hardware not included with amplifier
PWM MOSFET switching power supply
Intelligent Surface Mount Technology for cleaner sound and greater reliability
variable (40-200 Hz) high-pass/low-pass crossovers (12 dB/octave in high-pass mode, 24 dB/octave in low-pass mode)
ThunderEQ Bass Enhancement (0-18 dB bass boost at 40 Hz)
preamp outputs.

Now a guy at a local car stereo shop told me that he thinks that I should run the Diamond audio D3 12's on it. If the amp is only 4 ohm stable and the subs dont come in 6 ohms, how can I run three? I don't get it.

If the D3 is 4ohm DVC, then you can only use 2. Going lower than the minimum will shorten your amp's life.
